Manchester United are edging closer to completing their first signings of the Erik ten Hag era after reaching agreements to bring both Tyrell Malacia and Frenkie de Jong to Old Trafford.

As reported by the Manchester Evening News on Wednesday, United have reached agreements with Feyenoord and Barcelona respectively to bring the Netherlands internationals to Manchester, subject to each of them passing medicals. They are set to join the club for an initial combined total of £69million.

United's pursuit of De Jong has been a lengthy process, after United first signalled their interest in the Barcelona midfielder in the second week of May. Their attempts to lure Malacia to Old Trafford have moved at pace, hijacking his proposed move to Lyon as recently as Tuesday afternoon.
